Just had my two-week post op appointment--down 10 lbs and upgraded to pureed stage. Went straight to the market to stock up on all the stuff I could find with higher protein amounts. Quaker Wt Control Oatmeal, greek yogurt, skim plus milk, mozzarella sticks (found some with 8g per stick!).

So I made a scrambled egg and stuck a mozzarella stick in it. Not bad, though it's maddening to eat it so slow--I haven't had real food in over two weeks! Plus eggs get cold so fast...but it's still good!

I had my RNY surgery on 12/23 and was just discharged today--yay! I really could not take another sliver of strawberry jello and was ready to move on to my protein drinks and whatnot. They kept me an extra day which I wasn't happy about so I totally missed Christmas--my kids seem to not want to let me forget that either...

I feel pretty good...have been off pain meds since yesterday morning. Even the gawd-awful gas pains have subsided a lot (for a minute I wanted to inject myself with a syringe and suck the damn air out myself!). I've got my arsenal of vitamins and supplements, and I'm just sipping away!
